+</tr> </table>  <h3 id="Notes"> Notes</h3> <p><code>ptrdiff_t</code> is used for pointer arithmetic and array indexing, if negative values are possible. Programs that use other types, such as <code>int</code>, may fail on, e.g. 64-bit systems when the index exceeds <code><a href="limits" title="c/types/limits">INT_MAX</a></code> or if it relies on 32-bit modular arithmetic.</p>
+<p>Only pointers to elements of the same array (including the pointer one past the end of the array) may be subtracted from each other.</p>
+<p>If an array is so large (greater than <code><a href="limits" title="c/types/limits">PTRDIFF_MAX</a></code> elements, but equal to or less than <code><a href="limits" title="c/types/limits">SIZE_MAX</a></code> bytes), that the difference between two pointers may not be representable as <code>ptrdiff_t</code>, the result of subtracting two such pointers is undefined.</p>
+<p>For char arrays shorter than <code><a href="limits" title="c/types/limits">PTRDIFF_MAX</a></code>, <code>ptrdiff_t</code> acts as the signed counterpart of <code><a href="size_t" title="c/types/size t">size_t</a></code>: it can store the size of the array of any type and is, on most platforms, synonymous with <code>intptr_t</code>).</p>
